Quick Take

Boners: pretty great, right? There's something oddly fixating about having an appendage with a mind of its own, and of course what we do with our boners is even better. Hell, there's a multi-billion dollar industry dedicated to helping men get boners who otherwise can't.

But what about getting an erection when you otherwise don't want one? It happens, unfortunately (church and school are popular tropes), and it's the height of embarrassment even though, again, we have no control over it. Someone at AskReddit After Dark polled the community about the worst times and places they've pitched a tent. Suffice it to say, your inconvenient up-tuck in biology class has nothing on these poor bastards.

Oooooofffff, and you thought getting one in school as a student sounded embarrassing. Take all the same embarrassment, mix it with the judgy glare of a room full of teenagers and top with a dash of potential sexual misconduct looming on the horizon. Somewhere, a song by The Police plays softly in the background.

Damn. I've heard of both girls and guys crying with regards to sex, but it usually comes afterwards -- the boner is the impetus for the crying, not the other way around. In a way, it's kind of sweet: an expression of genuine emotion gets this guy's motor running.

Last week during a presentation on mental illness for work. I was the only guy in the room.

Hey, look on the bright side. Sprouting wood in what must be the least-appropriate professional environment possible is probably a surefire way to ensure that none of your women coworkers want to sleep with you. Office romances are a fool's errand, after all.
